QUALIFYING
Squad A -- 11:00am
Check-In -- 10:00am to 11:00am

FORMAT A
Qualifying: 5-games across 5 pairs of lanes.
Eliminator: Cut to top 17 (based on 66 entries), then bowlers compete in a 2-game eliminator round cutting the field in half.  Each eliminator round following the first round will be 1-game rounds.  Pins drop after every round, although we will have 1 wild card in the first round.  Wild card will be the highest total pinfall score who wasn't in the cut for that round.  With 66 entries, the top 17 would make the cut.  17 would cut to the top 8 + the 1 wild card.  Remaining 9 would cut to 4, and the top 4 will bowl a 3-game round robin final to determine the champion.  With 21 to 36 entries, we will cut directly to top 4 after the first round of eliminator.  
Prize Ratio:  A minimum of 1 in 4 entries will cash in this event.  17th would also be paid with 66 entries.

FORMAT IS BASED ON A FULL FIELD OF 66 BOWLERS
